Hello AX Professional, Can I copy data legal entity like Parameter, Data Master but not for transaction data.

For Example may like Copy Entity Data Between Companies in DMF.

I Already set legal entity for duplicate to other new legal entity but if I try to copy data between companies, not all data copied.

any one can help about this.

Regards

Wihman Setiawan

    There is no out-of-the-box functionality for this that you could leverage, all custom methods tried by various people have their risks. You may find additional details about these on this community site, use the search box. Some options on a high level are:

    - Export data you need using DIXF and import it again in different legal entity. This involves developing a lot of custom entities, since standard AX table list is very limited

    - Export all tables using a definition group and import it, then attempt to clean up transactions by SysDatabaseTransDelete

    - Custom ISV tools

    Since the AX relational tables and database structure is very complex, there is no guarantee that any of them will work without any problems. The best is to recreate the main setup by hand, and use standard Entities / develop custom ones for the master data which you would like to set up for the other legal entity in DIXF, instead of trying to duplicate an existing entity.

    Before you go ahead with any of the above, I would strongly advise to try it in a separate environment you use only for testing this duplication, since you could easily break your entire system.
